Our November 4, 2024 hike will be led by Michelle Trudeau-Spanjers at Reservoir Woods Park in Roseville, our first UMRA hike at this park. The Reservoir Woods Park site was home to a 30-million gallon, underground water reservoir that for years had been operated by the City of St. Paul. When the reservoir became outdated, St. Paul sold the land to the City of Roseville in 1997. Roseville is committed to keeping the land pristine and forest-like and the only improvements have been restoring the eroding trail and removing invasive species.

We will meet at 9:30 AM at the Reservoir Woods Trailhead and Parking lot located at 1901 Alta Vista Dr, Roseville, MN 55113, and start hiking by 9:40. We will be hiking through woodlands and prairies over flat and hilly terrain, for a total of about 4 miles. Hiking poles may be helpful as the trails will be covered with leaves and may be muddy. We will be on the lookout for the largest butternut tree in Minnesota! For those that are interested, we could meet for lunch at D'Amico and Sons on County Road B in Roseville afterwards.

Please sign up for this hike (required). Your completed form will be used to be sure everyone has arrived. Registrations will be accepted up to 24 hours before the hike.
